ARTA 2026 Wellness Walks
Looking to get more physically active in your community? What about meeting like-minded retirees?
ARTA is hosting a series of wellness walks in communities across Alberta, and even one in the Okanagan Valley! These walks are a great opportunity to get out, get active, and meet other retirees in the community! It's also a chance for all of us to celebrate the importance of being physically active and engaged in retirement.
Each walk will act as a drop-off for food bank donations in your local area, so please bring your kindness and generosity in addition to your walking shoes!
So lace up your walking shoes, bring along your sense of adventure, and let's make some memories and new connections.
